Teaching the Holocaust Through Art: Social Justice | Murals of the Holocaust

Louisville drama teacher Kim Joiner of Noe Middle School incorporates the arts into Holocaust history lessons. In this video, she explains how she facilitates discussions of social justice and connects study of the Holocaust to the drama classroom. She asks students to consider a central question: When do you stand up to authority instead of obeying it? Joiner explains why teachers should not be afraid to teach the Holocaust.
